Mitosis
Prophase | Mitosis begins centrioles (or poles) appear and begin to move to opposite ends of the cell spindle fibers form between the poles. |
Metaphase | Chromatins (or pairs of chromosomes) attach to the spindle fibers. |
Anaphase | Chromatids (or pairs of chromosomes) separate and begin to move to opposite ends of the cell. |
Telophase | To new nuclei form chromosomes appear as chromatin threads rather than rods mitosis ends |
Cytokinesis | Cell membrane moves inward to create two daughter cells each with it's own nucleus with identical chromosomes. |
Interphase | Chromosomes are copied chromosomes appear as threadlike coils chromatin at the start but each chromosomes and it's copy (sister chromosome) change to sister chromatids at the end of this phase. |
